About the Uccelliera Brunello di Montalcino Riserva 2016 750ml
Intense ruby red. Intense fruity tones of ripe cherries and prunes, floral tones of violet, chocolate. Warm, pasty, well-balanced, evident tannins, fresh, ample finish. Elegant and well balanced, powerful, but clean and smooth and a dynamic rising finale.
Pairs best with grilled and roasted red meats, game, aged cheeses. Wine for important occasion.
Offers forthcoming aromas and flavors of blackberry, black currant, licorice, tobacco and vanilla backed by vivid acidity and dusty tannins. This has enough fruit and structure to absorb the oakiness over time, is balanced overall and is poised for a promising future. Best from 2026
Rich and deeply alluring, the 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva wafts up to display crushed ashen stone mixed with hints of ginger, dusty florals and black cherry preserves. This is velvety-smooth and pliant in feel, lifted by cooling herbal and mineral tones, as an opulent wave of ripe red and black fruits washes across the palate, leaving a staining of minerals and spice in its wake. It’s long and structured, in need of further time to come fully into focus, yet somehow the 2016 Riserva remains completely fresh, tapering off to inner earth tones and hints of blueberry. Time will reveal further depths. This is an utterly classic Uccelliera Brunello in the making.
The 2016 Brunello di Montalcino Riserva is a terrific wine: bold, well-defined, powerful and balanced. The bouquet shows black cherry, cassis, earth, leather and dried roses. The palate offers soft fruit flavors supported by firm oak tannins. Coming back to the bottle 24 hours later, I found impressive integration and smoothness that took away from that alcohol heat.
